2026 review

Robert Gasser gave MIL a solid mid-rotation arm once he stuck, a 3.87 ERA and 1.19 WHIP in 109.1 IP with a 22.2 K% and 7.6 BB% over 463 BF across 21 games, 20 of them starts. Getting there took a while: he was optioned Mar 22, then shuttled between the majors and the minors on May 17, May 24, Jun 3, Jun 30, Jul 7, Jul 8 and Jul 11, and his first game did not come until May 17. After that the workload held steady, 27.1 IP in Jun, 21.2 IP in Jul, 25.0 IP in Aug and 27.0 IP in Sep. Drafted at NFBC ADP rank 1104, he finished 469th of 1472 in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank, 635 spots above, and 71st of 236 starting pitchers. His 3.87 ERA in 109.1 IP ran 0.40 below his 4.27 xERA. Left-handed batters got little off him, .163/.259/.293 over 139 PA, while right-handers hit .257/.321/.442 over 323 PA. He closed on his best note, a 1.67 ERA in 27.0 IP in Sep after a 4.98 ERA in 21.2 IP in Jul.
